The Scouts in Kingsbury are focused on preparing young people with Skills for Life. Led by inspirational volunteers and alongside your new friends, you’ll master the skills that will make you feel stronger and happier in the long run and try things you’d never get the chance to do at home or at school.

Group Leader Henry is keen to “make an impact in the community”. This diverse group has over 60% members from minority backgrounds. And in the few months they have been open they have already developed a wide variety of Skills for Life including First Aid, navigation, fund raising & leadership.

Meeting on Fridays, Chandos Explorers have been thriving with their new group for boys & girls aged 14-17. One Explorer describes how "Explorers has given me an opportunity to really step out of my comfort zone and meet some really wonderful people.”

The group opened their original units in September 2021 to create opportunities for Beavers, Cubs & Scouts from ages 6-14. Having now flourished to add an additional unit from September 2023 for Explorers. With further developments still to come for early years!

Being an Explorer is all about discovering the world on your own terms and making the most of what you have, wherever and whoever you are. A volunteer with Chandos Explorers praises how “Scouts bring many wonderful skills and experiences that I could never imagine before!"

The Explorers have already taken on challenges including an Adventure Day in Paccar Scout Camp, a Sleepover at their HQ, a day of detailed First Aid training, fund raising at Bonfire Night, a Climbing Wall Party and a 30km Expedition Competition.

The Scouts encourage Explorers to “Try more. See more. Do more. At Explorers you'll get the chance to dream big, find your place in the world and make memories to last a lifetime.” Over the Summer, Chandos Explorers will be taking on new adventures including an Easter Camp!
